About the game
Joltt - Battle Pillars challenges wizards to face off in a magical joust where victory isn't about depleting your opponent's health but making them fall from their pillar. Outmaneuver their attacks and knock them off with your magical projectiles to be the last one standing.
No close combat. No blocking. The first one to get hit loses the round instantly. Read your opponent’s mind, dodge and counter everything to be victorious!
